InterConneX is a file management and sharing application that allows you to store files on your iPad and exchange them with other apps, iPhones, iPads, computers (using ChronoAgent or SFTP) and even cloud storage services. You begin by creating one or more Sharespaces on your device. These are "virtual hard drives" in which you can place as many document files as will fit. You can manage these files just like you would on a desktop computer - copy, move, delete, rename and organize them into a folder hierarchy. Sharespaces can remain private, where only you have access to their contents, or you can make them public, where other users with InterConneX can access them to exchange files back and forth. Document exchange works over WiFi networks or, optionally, Bluetooth for direct device-to-device transfers. Basic File Management Capabilities: - Copy - Duplicate - Move - Rename - Delete - Folder Creation - Group Creation - Blank Document Creation (from Templates) Additional Built-In Capabilities - ZIP archive. - ZIP extraction. - Document preview via QuickLook. - Direct printing. - Email w/attachments (both ZIP'ed and standard). - Direct download via URL. Document Exchange Features - Drag & drop files between applications. - Edit documents in place using other applications. - Transfer documents to other applications. - Receive documents from other applications. - Copy contents of files to the system pasteboard. - Paste contents of the system pasteboard as files. - Export media files to your Photos library. - Import media files from your Photos library. Connectivity - Access sharespaces on other iPhones & iPads running InterConneX (via WiFi or Bluetooth). - Access macOS computers which have ChronoAgent installed (via WiFi/Internet). - Access macOS, Windows or Linux computers via SFTP (via WiFi/Internet). - Access the Amazon S3, Backblaze B2 and Google Cloud Storage services (via WiFi/Internet). - Most file management and document exchange features work with remote connections. Synchronization - Compatible with ChronoSync 4.4 (or later) for automated synchronization between sharespaces and macOS computers. InterConneX is ready to go "out-of-the-box" with two sharespaces automatically created for you - one for local, private files and another for public file sharing. Additional sharespaces, both local and remote, can be created as needed. Note: Creating more than three sharespaces requires an in-app purchase of the InterConneX Sharespace Extension. Six tutorial-style documents are included and these will introduce you to the basic concepts and advanced capabilities that InterConneX has to offer. An InterConneX portal web page offers additional resources along with news and information. Lastly, our expert support team lays ready and waiting to assist you with any issues you may have as well as to help you get the most out of InterConneX - either by itself or in conjunction with ChronoAgent and ChronoSync.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

FileBrowserGO holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 3.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: FileBrowserGO has 708 ratings behind it against 13, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 46% of FileBrowserGO's written reviews are positive against 84% of InterConneX for iPad's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

FileBrowserGO ships an update monthly, InterConneX for iPad every 6 months. The most recent releases landed on October 21, 2026 and October 16, 2026 respectively.
